At 1920x1080, the system clears the 60 FPS threshold at all presets, with the Ultra preset maintaining an average of 91 FPS. This makes 1080p the optimal resolution for this combo, providing a smooth experience with no compromises on visual fidelity. The verdict by resolution confirms that all four presets at 1080p are playable, with the Ultra preset being the best choice for maximum visual quality.

At 2560x1440, the system can run the game at High, Medium, and Low presets, all of which average above 60 FPS. The High preset at 61 FPS is the most demanding playable option, but the tight margin suggests that users may prefer the Medium preset at 86 FPS for a more stable experience. The Ultra preset is not playable at 1440p, as it averages 58 FPS, just below the threshold. At 3840x2160, only the Low preset is playable, averaging 63 FPS. This means that 4K gaming is possible but requires the lowest visual settings, making it a less desirable option for users who prioritize image quality.

CPU and GPU Roles

The benchmark data reveals distinct roles for the CPU and GPU in Pc Building Simulator across different resolutions. The Intel Core i5-13400F has a percentile ranking of 77 among all CPUs, and its nearest rival, the AMD Ryzen 9 6900HS, performs within 0% of its average score. This suggests that the CPU is a capable component for this game, and the measured FPS scaling between resolutions indicates that the CPU is not the primary bottleneck. At 1920x1080, the Low preset achieves 192 FPS, while the Ultra preset achieves 91 FPS, a 53% reduction. This substantial drop points to the GPU being the dominant factor in determining frame rates as settings increase, as the CPU workload from the simulation logic is likely consistent across presets.

As the resolution increases to 2560x1440, the average frame rates drop by approximately 37% at Low settings (from 192 to 121 FPS) and 36% at High settings (from 96 to 61 FPS). This scaling pattern indicates that the GPU's rendering load scales directly with pixel count, while the CPU's role remains relatively constant. The Intel Arc B570, with a percentile of 65, is the component that struggles more at higher resolutions, as evidenced by the 4K results. At 3840x2160, the Low preset only achieves 63 FPS, which is a 67% reduction from the 1080p Low result. This heavy scaling shows that the GPU is the limiting factor at 4K, as the CPU's simulation workload does not increase with resolution. The data supports a conclusion that the CPU provides sufficient processing power for the game's logic, while the GPU determines the playable resolution and settings.
